Y-type molecular sieve, preparation and application thereof in cracking
Technical Field
The invention relates to a Y-type molecular sieve, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in cracking, in particular to a Y-type molecular sieve, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in hydrocracking.
Background
The Y-type molecular sieve has the obvious advantages of large specific surface area, high hydrothermal stability, suitable acidity, low synthesis cost and the like, and simultaneously has an important position which cannot be replaced in the field of catalysis due to the 1.12nm super-cage structure in the topological structure. At present, the method is applied to a plurality of fields such as petroleum refining, sewage treatment, waste gas treatment and the like.
The grain size of the Y-type molecular sieve is generally different from hundreds of nanometers to several micrometers, the size of a pore channel is smaller than 1.3nm, and when molecules are diffused in the pore channel of the molecular sieve, the molecules continuously collide with the pore wall, so that macromolecules are difficult to leave the pore channel of the molecular sieve, side reactions are generated, and carbon deposition of a catalyst is caused. The conventional micron-sized Y-shaped molecular sieve has small specific surface area, so that the loss of the active center on the inner surface of the molecular sieve is caused, and the effective utilization rate of an active site is reduced. The microporous structure of the micron-sized Y-shaped molecular sieve causes the problems of longer diffusion path of reactants, larger diffusion resistance, low effective utilization rate of active centers and the like, and limits the application of the micron-sized Y-shaped molecular sieve in industry to a great extent, particularly the reaction of oil macromolecules in the field of petroleum refining. At present, researchers generally adopt two methods of preparing a hierarchical pore Y-type molecular sieve and shortening the length of a pore channel, namely a nanoscale Y-type molecular sieve to solve a plurality of problems of a micron-sized Y-type molecular sieve.
The preparation method of the hierarchical pore Y-shaped molecular sieve is mainly characterized in that the molecular sieve is placed in an acidic environment or an alkaline environment to achieve the purposes of dealumination and desiliconization through a post-treatment method, and a mesoporous structure is further introduced into a molecular sieve framework. Or adding a template agent in the process of forming the molecular sieve initial gel, and removing the template agent in the molecular sieve framework through high-temperature roasting to form defect sites and introduce the defect sites into secondary holes. In both methods, a secondary pore structure can be formed in a molecular sieve framework, but secondary mesopores are introduced less, secondary pores are formed on the surface of the molecular sieve more, and the effect of diffusing macromolecules into molecular sieve pores is not great.
Compared with the preparation method of the hierarchical pore Y-shaped molecular sieve, the nanoscale Y-shaped molecular sieve has the advantages of high specific surface area, high load capacity, shorter pore channel structure and the like. The grain size of the nano-scale Y-shaped molecular sieve is beneficial to improving the accessibility of an active center, effectively reducing the diffusion path of macromolecules in a molecular sieve pore channel and improving the diffusion efficiency. Especially, when the grain size is less than 100nm, the external specific surface area is obviously increased, the pore channel is obviously shortened, and the catalytic performance is greatly improved. However, the too small crystal grain size easily causes problems of crystal grain agglomeration, difficult solid-liquid separation, and the like, and affects the wide application thereof in industry. At present, the synthesis method of the nano-scale Y-type molecular sieve mainly adopts direct hydrothermal synthesis by utilizing a template agent, seed crystals or microwave, ultrasonic equipment intervention and the like.
CN100551825 discloses an initial gel preparation process under the gravity condition of a rotating bed, which is complex in process flow and not beneficial to large-scale industrial production. CN101723400 discloses a preparation method of a small-grain Y-type molecular sieve with the grain diameter of 100 nm-700 nm, and the small grains prepared by the synthesis method are highly dispersed, are not beneficial to separation and have lower yield. CN 10669860 discloses a method for preparing a nano Y molecular sieve by using an ultrasonic drying treatment, which can collect the product by filtration, but the synthesis process is complex and is not beneficial to industrial mass production. CN105621446 discloses a method for synthesizing a nano Y-shaped molecular sieve by using modified kaolin as a raw material, the grain size of the synthesized Y-shaped molecular sieve is smaller and is between 30 and 100nm, but the synthesized raw material is special, and the product yield is lower.
